Microservices are the current hype. Websites are full of introducing posts, books are being written and conferences organized. There’s big promises of scalability and flexibility. However, when you are knee deep in mud as an architect, developer or tester, it’s hard to find out how to get there. Sander Hoogendoorn, independent craftsman and Chief Technology Officer at ANVA, discusses the long and winding road his recent projects, both greenfield and brownfield, have travelled towards microservices and continuous delivery. Sander addresses polyglot persistence, DDD, bounded contexts, modeling HTTP/REST, continuous delivery, build pipelines and many lessons learned, using many real-life examples.
